Will the old school IL2 guys run off the new players?

[TexRoadkill]

Got the game today and managed to play in a few online dogfights. The game ran great.

I joined a game with two other players. They both joined the other team and ganged up on me. I suck at flying and dogfighting but still managed to get a kill. They hit me a few times and the engine on my hurri died twice. Not sure if it was from enemy fire or my abuse. I landed it both times. Another time I stalled out and crashed into the city below.

I had a great time and after the match I get a message from BFE1409 (or something like that) and he says "if you are going to crash everytime you are getting shot at then stick to viva pinata. this game is not for you."

Seriously? Heckling new players on the first day of play? This game will be lucky to have enough players to support any DLC or sequals and elitist assholes want to run people off already?
